Robberies so far this year are trending down 9.7% compared to the same time period in 2023, according to the latest data available from the New York Police Department.

However, the robbery rate over the last 12 months is down when compared to the annual average over the last three years, and the frequency of robberies remains higher than it was before the pandemic.

The city is averaging 296 robberies a week over the last 12 months. In 2019, that number was 257 a week.

The risk is not the same neighborhood to neighborhood.

ABC7’s data team looked at the New York Police Department’s data by neighborhood from 2020 through December 07.
